Would Re Justified.

The county clerk would be justified in
refusing to receive for record some of the
deeds and other instruments which from
time to time find their way to his office Cd
the ground that they are not legible and
cannot be read. Not that they are not
worded right, (for with that he has moth
ing to do nor written well enough, but
those who draft them make such a mig
gardly and penurious use of ink that it is
almost impossible to read q single word OF
them, except that contained in the print
ed portion of the instrument. An instru-
ment of this sort found its way to the
court house yesterday, and there was ser
ious talk Of ascertaining the name Of the
one who drew the instrument and of
sending him a bottle of ink. As a general
thing deeds, mortgages and other convey
ances of this sort left at the county
clerks Office for record are models of PEN
manship in ether respects, and herein,
perhaps, lies the difficulty. An excellent
penman, and one who takes a pride in
writing a splendid hand" has to hold
his pen very lightly, and it will not>do TO
put any strength or force into the work
or in other words it will not do to bear
on, y as the masters in penmanship used
to say. yet out here in this practical coun-
try good penmanship is of small account
except in certain lines of business, and If
a legal document is to be drawn or a deed
to be made out one of the most important
things Is ink. The ~"Spencerian system"
is at a discount when you have an instru-
ment to be placed ON record.

There is trouble brewing along the clas-
sic banks of Crow creek, which will very
soon find its way into the courts, if the
instructions of the city council to Attor-
ney NanDevanter are carried out, and
there is no doubt but that they will be.
for that gentleman is prompt in the dis
charge of official duties. 1t has been an
open secret for some days that prominent
parties living near Grow creek above the
city were appropriating considerably more
than their share of the water, and that
litigation would no doubt have to be re-
sorted to in order to settle the difficulty.
Some effort was made to keep the matter
quiet, but as the trouble was openly dis
cussed at the meeting of the city council
on Tuesday evening, and as an instruction
by a vote of the city council was given to
Mr.. NanDevanter to at once take such
legal steps as are necessary to settle the
question of water rights, there is no harm
now in publishing the fact that there is
now and has been for some time a very
unsatisfactory state of affairs existing in
regard to the right to the water OF Grow
creek. 1t is probable that some suits will
be instituted in a day or two.

The Burlington & Missouri ag.iu.

Articles of incorporation of the Eastern
Wyoming Railroad company Burlington
& Missouri were filed in the Office of Sec
rotary Morgan. The capital stock of the
company is fixed at 1000. 900 and the
purpose is to construct a railroad from the
eastern boundary line of the territory clear
across it and through every one of the old
counties. The eastern terminus OF the
road will be at a point on the North
Platte, and it should be explained here
that the Grand Island branch of the Bur.
lington & Missouri is now completed to
Broken Bow, which is only fifty miles
east of the Wyoming line. The branch
of the Burlington & Missouri which is
coming to Cheyenne will, after leaving
this city, run in a northerly direction so
as to connect with this new line at or near
Goshen Hole.
The principal place OF business OF the
company will be at Cheyenne, and the
incorporators are G. w. Holdredge, }. G..
Taylor, c. ID. Dorman, w. j. Higgins
and G.. 6. Greene.

Bridget Gallagher, who has figured for
the past two or three years as the most
notorious of all the female police court
characters in Cheyenne, has go1e-let us
for good, and before going made a solemn
VOW and promise hat she would never re-
turn to Cheyenne again. Less than a
month ago Bridget, for perhaps the
twentieth time, was locked up in the Gala
boose for drunkenness, but word having
been received at Cheyenne that her
father, now living in Laramie City, who
with her mother, shook Bridget some
time ago, was lying almost at the point of
death. she asked to be released in order
that she might go where he was, and our
police authorities being only too anxious
to get rid OF Bridget, readily consented
and released her, at which time she, Of
her own accord, made the promise alluded

Red Hot and stfn Heating"

The above heading is about the correct
way to describe the boom in real estate,
which is still in progress in Cheyenne.
Yesterday on the surface was very quiet
and but few actual sales were madc-that
Is to say, but few deeds for property were
made so far as could be ascertained. THE
LEADER does not choose to regard every
option parties may give or hold as a
genuine sale, and hence does not devote a
column or so every morning to these mat
tiers. Whenever a sale is finally made it
is generally mentioned. but as has been
stated before it is assumed that everybody
is by this time well aware that real estate
is being bought and sold on every corner
and on every hand, and they can %investi.
gate for themselves. Though the weather
interfered materially with business yester-
day, yet the real estate men were active as
usual and many sales we're made.

The Corner Stone.

Pursuant to the call heretofore pub
lished a large meeting of the citizens of
Cheyenne was held at the court house at
1870 last evening to consider the question
OF laying the capitol corner stone. The
meeting was called to order by Judge
Bergman, who read the call. Judge
Fisher was chosen secretary and c. W.
Stewart secretary.
On motion of Col. Murrin a committee
of ten, together with the chairmen OF the
boards of county commissioners of each
county in the territory. was appointed.
with power to act in conjunction with the
capitol commissioners in the laying Of the
corner stone of the capitol. The COM
mittee as designated consists of Isaac
Bergman, F. +. Warren, A. d. Kelley,
John Hunton, j. A. Riner, 7. B.
Adams, f. W. Whitcomb. Col. Murrin,
Mayor c. w. Riner and Governor Noon
light.
On motion of Judge Bergman it was
voted as the sense of the meeting that the
day of the laying of the corner stone be
observed as a holiday, AMI that all places
of business ought to be closed on the
afternoon of that day. 1t was also voted
unanimously that the city council be
asked to contribute a portion of the ex-
pense of the occasion.
The meeting then adjourned, subject to
the call of the committee.
